Running n Sewing Machine.

I sometimes question if the sewing
machine has been as great a boon to
women as is popularity supposed Those
women who get their living by sewing
earned just as much in the old time, for
they got 81 for mailing chenlise that
took couple of days to build where now
the women rattle off ten of them for
ten cents piece. There is no question
but the exertion of running sewing ma
chine long enough to make ten shirts
does greater harm than the old time con-
finement necessary to make one by hand.
But the great evil wrought by this labor
saving invention is the Abandonment
of the pleasant industry making ones
own underclothes gave to women. No
girl will sit down ard, by adding one lit
tie stitch to another, construct q garment
that she can go forth and buy at smaller
outlay than the material would cost. =

Consumption, severe Coughs, Group, Asth-

blacklist of Literary Crimes.

Self admiration is the blackest of all
literary crimes. You might far better
always distrust. yourself. Both, truly
enough, are unwholesomc, if not un.
healthy; but the latter is by far the least
deplorable. Do not read your own work,
except for the purpose of revision, for at
least ten years. BY that time you will
find out that the wisest people on earth
yourself included-arc only fools; and
then, reading your own books, as books,
will not harm you. Then you will have
discovered that you are not the axle upon
which the book world turns, and, very
likely, nothing else will be so distasteful
